    I just took two Sierra OMC coils off their laminations. They are friction retained by plastic ribs in the square hole. I cut a one inch slot in a piece of wood to support the coils and pushed the lams out with an arbor press and a 3/8 in bolt. No sweat. But I had to hacksaw and split the old Wico coils to get them off. As far as I know the OMC coils are not available without their laminations. You can get genuine (?) Wico coils bare, probably through Chrysler/Mercury channels, but they seem to cost a lot more.Coil Kit 889493a0, over $110.
